Chapter 85 I Just Don’t Want to Be Gentle to You (Additional 2)
The girl's voice had just fallen.
Wu Mei felt that the pressure on her had disappeared.
She looked at Xi Jiu in surprise. The man's gaze had moved away from her and landed on the small figure at the entrance.
"Why are you back so early?" he asked.
The technical team members trembled in fear. With such a gentle tone, could this really be their ruthless boss?
"Ah," Ruan Qi changed her shoes, looking a little happy, "The commercial shoot went smoothly, so I came back early. Brother Chen bought a lot of food, we're in for a treat tonight."
Xi Jiu curled up the corners of his mouth, feeling happy about the word "we".
Ruan Qi put down her things and walked into the living room. After greeting everyone, she asked Xi Jiu, "Mr. Xi, how are you feeling today? Have you taken your medicine for lunch?"
"He ate it!" Bai Yuchen quickly interrupted, "I saw Brother Nine eat it with my own eyes, don't worry, Miss Ruan!"
Ruan Qi nodded with satisfaction.
"That's good. Mr. Xi, please lie down first. I'll get the medicine box to change your medicine."
The little girl walked away in her slippers.
Xi Jiu withdrew his gaze and glared at Bai Yuchen, expressing his dissatisfaction with his behavior of interrupting him.
Bai Yuchen shrank his neck and looked around guiltily.
Everyone in the technical team looked at each other, and finally looked at Wu Mei.
Wu Mei stood there stiffly, her face pale.
Everyone in the base knew that she had liked Xi Jiu for several years.
Although Xi Jiu had never responded, she believed that with their affection for each other from fighting side by side and spending time together day and night, he would be moved sooner or later.
But now, Xi Jiu's gentleness towards Ruan Qi dealt her a heavy blow.
It turned out that he was not incapable of being gentle, but he was just unwilling to be gentle to her.
Wu Mei's heart ached, and her chest was filled with bitterness and unwillingness.
Why?
She had been with him for so many years, why should she be taken away by a little girl? !
Wu Mei was adding more drama to her story in her mind, while Ruan Qi returned to the living room carrying the pink medicine box.
Xi Jiu had obediently taken off his shirt and lay on the sofa.
Ruan Qi took off the bandages on him and took out the ointment from the medicine box.
At this moment, a hand reached out and roughly took the ointment away.
Ruan Qi was stunned and looked at Wu Mei who took the ointment with confusion.
"I won't bother Miss Ruan with such a small matter." Wu Mei pushed her away from the sofa. "I've helped the boss apply medicine many times before, so I have more experience."
Ruan Qi staggered due to the squeeze.
She watched Wu Mei unscrew the cap of the ointment and reached out anxiously, "Hey, wait a minute!"
Wu Mei thought she was going to grab the ointment, so she quickly dug out a large piece and slapped it on Xi Jiu's back, then quickly pushed her away.
Ruan Qi was a little dumbfounded.
Wu Mei gave her a provocative look.
Ruan Qi's expression was a little complicated.
"Um..." She frowned in confusion, "Don't you feel a little pain in your hand?"
Wu Mei was stunned by her question.
Suddenly, I felt a sharp stinging sensation in my fingertips.
She looked down and saw that the palm of her hand, which was covered with white ointment, had countless densely packed red dots that looked extremely scary!
The tingling sensation in the fingertips is getting stronger and stronger, and is rapidly spreading to the palm of the hand.
"What's going on!" Wu Mei screamed.
"This ointment is very potent and shouldn't come into direct contact with healthy skin." Ruan Qi puffed out his cheeks in frustration and took out a pair of medical gloves from the medicine box. "I asked you to wait a moment just now because I wanted to remind you to wear gloves. Who told you not to listen..."
